My mom and I stayed in Deb's lovely studio for a long weekend recently--we couldn't ask for more perfect accommodations. The deck was the true highlight. We spent mornings and evenings watching the waves and the whales (3 grey whales!) and even these gorgeous photos don't do it justice. The space is very roomy, we had plenty of room to spread out and relax. The light in the apartment is nice and bright. My mom slept in the main bed--very comfortable, and I slept in the small side room (I'm 5'3", and I slept like a log in the tiny bed and could stretch all the way out, and really could not have been more comfortable, particularly with the fluffy comforter provided. However, it is small and narrow, and the description is accurate that it would be perfect for a kid.) Deb was accommodating and friendly, but not at all intrusive, and there were kind notes guiding us around the apartment. We both appreciated the guidebooks specific to the area, which included books pertaining to the fascinating local history. We also used the binoculars for spotting the aforementioned whales. The tv is set up with apple tv, which was great. I don't have any complaints. Given the accommodations, the amazing location, and the stellar view, I hope that we get the chance to stay here again. - Andrea

We really enjoyed our experience at Deb's ocean view cottage. The location was fantastic, right across from the ocean in the heart of downtown Mendocino. We'd never been to Mendocino before and had considered staying at a local inn, but we were happy we stayed at Deb's.

The place itself is very roomy and had everything we needed - bathtub to bathe our baby, kitchen with all the standard items, etc. There were nice touches throughout - the piano, the bookshelf with charming books about the local culture and history, the Nintendo Wii, yoga mats, telescope, and more. Lots of cute little notes explaining things.

There are several windows and skylights without shades, so you wake up with the light but we loved how light and airy the windows make the space. And there are eye shades for those who like to keep out the morning light and catch a few more Zzz's.

Deb communicated well, and offered suggestions for local food. All in all I would definitely recommend Deb's place!

The seaside studio is great - very spacious, cozy, close to everything but also offering privacy. Deb has thought of every detail and the place is spotless. The bed was very comfortable and there were plenty of pillows and nice sheets. There is a large binder offering tips, menus, walks etc and Deb was available to answer any questions we had. We would love to go back to Mendocino and stay with Deb again!

An absolute gem. Our best stay in Mendocino out of several and all because of this property. Gorgeous views, easy access to all of town, and the owners prompt and courteous service made it enjoyable.

The pictures don't do it justice. It is a nice long and open space focused on the view. Kitchen is well equipped and the small room in the back is a cozy spot for a nap or a kid's (website hidden) and internet are nice adds. Used the provided binoculars to spot several whales every day we were there. Bring wine and cheese for glorious sunsets on the deck.

This was our second stay at Seaside Studio. It's the perfect get-away. With lots of sunlight, panoramic views of the ocean and a killer location, it's paradise. Thanks Deb, for all the great upgrades to the space.
